Remove review with zero characters

I have been going back through my own reviews since the change and deleting out a few of them I felt were not helpful and didn't meet the criteria for a review. If the review was less than 150 characters I was leaving them in as personal notes (thinking they wouldn't count anyway) but then noticed this:



I had scribbled a few notes, a while back, not enough to count as a review - but the system looks like it is telling me it does count. Is that correct?

 

No worries. thanks!

I also noticed that as I am going through and deleting my own crappy reviews, some of them stick around and don't delete. I edit my review, don't change any scores, and just delete out the text and re-submit, and when I go back and look at the page again later, my old review is still there.

Do changes like this need to be approved? All I am trying to do is clean up my own reviews to make sure any that are over 150 are actually decent and constructive - I have a handful that really shouldn't be counting, so I figured the easiest way to fix was delete the words so it wouldn't count, but it doesn't seem to be working

 

will do Thanks

 

@Mike - thanks for fixing!
